Strand Sturla

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, a brilliant and witty collection of writings on the art and nature of poetry -- a master class both entertaining and provocative. The pieces have a broad range and many levels. In one, we sit with the teenage Mark Strand while he reads for the first time a poem that truly amazes him: "You, Andrew Marvell" by Archibald MacLeish, in which night sweeps in an unstoppable but exhilarating circle around the earth toward the speaker standing at noon. The essay goes on to explicate the poem, but it also evokes, through its form and content, the poem's meaning -- time's circular passage -- with the young Strand first happening upon the poem, the older Strand seeing into it differently, but still amazed. Among the other subjects Strand explores: the relationship between photographs and poems, the eternal nature of the lyric, the contemporary use of old forms, four American views of Parnassus, and an alphabet of poetic influences. We visit as well Strandian parallel universes, whose absurdity illuminates the lack of a vital discussion of poetry in our culture at large: Borges drops in on a man taking a bath, perches on the edge of the tub, and discusses translation; a president explains in his farewell address why he reads Chekhov to his cabinet. Throughout The Weather of Words, Mark Strand explores the crucial job of poets and their readers, who together joyfully attempt the impossible -- to understand through language that which lies beyond words.

The more than seventy-five clubs located in what is known as Carolina's Grand Strand play host to more than 8,200 rounds of golf daily! With so many courses to choose from, even locals face the difficult derision of where to play -- it is literally a case of so many courses and so little time. Here, author Tommy Woodrum, a resident of the Grand Strand, helps make the decision an easier one for every golfer living in or visiting the area. The clubs are profiled in depth, complete with layouts and score-cards. Additional useful information includes addresses, telephone numbers, course architects, and the years the courses opened. Course and slope ratings are also provided to help shave strokes off your score. Tommy Woodrum's love of the game has always been a significant part of his life. His special golf outings include his family's annual golf tournament, talking to the fairways with Grand Strand course designers, and regular trips to Scotland to discover new courses and new challenges. A golf correspondent for the North Myrtle Beach Times, he also hosts the nationally syndicated weekly television show "Grand Strand Golf with Tommy Woodrum".
